👨🏼‍💻 My FREE Course to be a Data Analyst 👉 https://lukebarousse.com/5daycourse

In this video we cover a couple of my past projects as a data analyst that involved spreadsheets (such as Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets). We look at the good with this application and then move into the bad uses/practices of this. Specifically, I go into issues with using spreadsheets for: Data Storage, Reproducibility, and Sharing/Dashboarding. Finally I end with my recommended resources which I have included links for below. 🤙🏼
